It has been silent. But I know the projects have been surging on...
Question:
It was mentioned that most of the open source projects, being generated
from ground up, have the unique capability to integrate interoperability
right at the start.
But has the alliance agreed on what level of interoperability this would be?
So far the interoperability solutions that have been presented were:
CORBA
CORBAmed
HL7
CEN
GEHR
Are all these players on the same field? meaning: can I proceed with my EMR
project, with my own database, with my own programming language, and with
my own operating system, and _still_ be interoperable with the other open
source projects?
Which of the above can give me that flexibility?
Shouldn't we settle this question right now or else go the way of the
current proprietary systems?
Maybe we're not looking for the best (maybe it isn't there). But we need
something common to hold on.
